Apollo 17 Flight Director Neil Hutchinson Built and Used Entry Console Checklist. Original Mission Control "Work Schedule - Mission: Entry" checklist, three pages, dated December 1972, used during the Apollo 17 reentry and splashdown phase by Flight Director Neil B. Hutchinson, NASA's Flight Director for the Apollo 17 Recovery Shift. Printed on 11" x 17" NASA MSC Form 1173 (May 1965) graph-lined paper, each page is densely annotated and organized into columns labeled Tracking, Retro, A/G, FIDO, MCC, GUIDO, Crew, and ACR Notes, recording real-time hand-marked updates, timing notes, and coordination among Mission Control's major positions. Handwritten notes reflect direct monitoring of spacecraft attitude, recovery coordination, and communications across flight control teams. Some tearing of three-hole punches at top, otherwise fine.
